Slate Roofing Contractors
Association of North America Update, June 2005

The Slate Roofing Contractors Association (SRCA), an organization
by and for slate roofing contractors, is now up and running
as of March 1, 2005! North American slate roofing contractors
have never before had an organization of their own despite
over a century and a half of slate roofing in the U.S.
The SRCA will provide an opportunity for slaters to pool
their talents for the purposes of documenting traditional
slate roof installation standards, developing training
programs, enhancing professionalism and gaining respect
for the trade.

3) Roofing Contractor Member: ($300/yr) — open
to roofing contractors who do less than 75% of their
roofing contracts in slate

4) Slate Roofing Contractor Member: ($400/yr) — roofing
contractors who specialize in slate, do at least 75%
of their roof contracts in slate and have at least 5
years continuous experience in slate roofing. Contractor
Member benefits include a membership plaque, listings on the Contractor Directory and other member listings
at SlateRoofers.org;
access
to the members only forum at slateroofers.org; and information
about events, conferences, projects for bid and other
important issues that will not be available to the general
public.

Incorporated 501c6 Non-Profit Trade Association: The SRCA
is registered in the state of Pennsylvania as a non-profit corporation (2008) and funded by membership dues. SRCA
members will meet at an annual conference to exchange
information, techniques, skills, gripes, ideas, and visions
for the future.

Contractor Profile: All contractors
who are SRCA members are listed on the Contractor
Directory mentioned above with a personal Contractor Profile. This
Profile allows the public access to detailed information
about the contractor that will help determine whether
the contractor is the right one for a slate roofing project.
